Sorry for that little outbreak!
Sorry for that little outbreak!
what was your point exactly? :-S
and what's this "fanboys" thing mean?
and no, no one's produced a game on the XBOX that gets close to using all it's power. not by a long shot

*stands on splintered soapbox fo effect*
I would just like to say, no point out that a console could be powerful enough to control planets (exaggeration) but if games aren't actually developed using the full potential of the console (which games like Halo and Rogue Leader are pretty D*mn close to) they won't be incredible. Quite often a game with good graphics has excellent gameplay aswell as the developer has spent time on it. Of course some sell it on graphics which is a bad trend for the industry.
Anyway I own an Xbox and I like some of the games on GC like Rouge Leader, Zelda and Mario also Pikmin looks interesting. But I would get an Xbox over a GC because its my preference nothing else. I may buy a GC aswell, hey both consoles are great (so's PS2 before anyone starts) and you are lucky to own one of them, stop making such a good thing so bitter.
Dang Fanboys....

erm, hello? have you heard of Halo? :-) it's in the top ten games EVER made voted by PROFESSIONALS. it's been voted GAME OF THE YEAR by PROFESSIONALS. and that's all down to graphics, gameplay, sound, etc, etc!!
and not forgetting the POWER of the XBOX :-)
i'm not doubting that Rouge Leader's a great game, but Halo out-ranks ANY game on the market :-P

Power ain't everything. The N64 was far more powerful than the Playstation and look what happened there.

Oh come on! There's got to be at least one game on the GameCube you like. I hate the X-box but there's atleast one game I like on it.

i totally agree with titalwhirl...
you seem to think that physical size means that a machine will be better...and that game potential and innovation is just based (basically) on graphics

The size of a console doesn't mean anything really.
For example, look at Resident Evil on the Gamecube, I don't think you can find a better looking game on any system at the moment, Metroid Prime has amazing graphics, as has Mario Sunshine and Zelda.
Have you played Rogue Leader? The graphics are amazing, especially the ‘Battle of Endor’ level; you’ve got loads of team mates flying with you, 5 or 6 huge rebel ships, about 50 TIE Fighters, a couple of huge Star Destroyers, loads of laser fire and no hint of slowdown.
It doesn't matter how much power a console has, as it's how good the developers are at using the tools at their disposal which really matters.
And as Tiltawhirl said, it is gameplay that counts in the end though.
